Mirandy voices a sharp, satirical view on men who kiss as leverage in marriage. She mocks the idea that a single kiss can mask neglect and control, warning that excessive public kissing conceals a poor relationship and leading to divorce. She stresses balance, restraint, and practical affection over performative passion.
A 1910 verse reflecting on life as a river guided by divine will. The speaker seeks to carry goodness, mercy, and healing as rocks and gems along the journey back to God's sea, hoping love and courage sustain through trials and chasms.
In a drawing room dispute Mr Dewsbury learns his daughter Edith and fiancé Edward press for $500, then for a full house furnish. He reverses stance after discussion, and the couple plan a walk with catalogues to choose fittings from Sable & Sons.
A verse by Nell Brinkley retells Kitty of Coleraine as she trips with a milk pitcher, causing a spill and a kiss. The humorous misfortune continues with hay making, pride of the dairy, and Barney O Leary, ending with the chorus about misfortune in Coleraine.
The poem describes a man facing sun and cold, forest, and acres, breaking free with effort as solitude and hunger press him. In a cabin he endures, until a clearing reveals a turning point when the harvest peaks, signaling a hard won return from hardship in a frontier landscape.
A light exchange in the St. Louis Star cites Mr Squiggs asking for a lock of Miss Genevieve’s hair. She replies with a playful option to specify shade or purchase a puff the next time she is uptown.
A verse that wittily ponders choosing a partner who matches a masculine ideal yet admires a brisk, energetic damsel. The speaker jokes about preferring a cow or thunderstorm to a timid wife and suggests that a strong woman who runs and throws may outpace a traditional hunter of domestic peace.
Beatrice Fairfax argues in a dated column that men habitually seek mates while women fear appearing to chase. She cites fairness in male choice yet laments women’s limited freedom, urging gradual equality and more reciprocal initiative in courtship while noting men would panic if women proposed.
A fragment from a humorous column recounts a railway station pocket theft then reveals a note reading What a silly joke. A New York man asks about a dog described as an expectorator and Splitz. Other quips include a misattributed lawmakers remark and a playful kiss of wit about a dowry.
The poem portrays a maple tree torn between spring and winter. A robin’s foolish word sparks its hope for warmth, but White Frost returns, chilling its buds and silencing spring. The speaker, Arthur Stringer, addresses the maple with a playful yet elegiac tone in Hampton's Magazine.
